Schmutzpuppe Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Is it enough to swap the Antic, Gtia and the crystal to get a real PAL (color) signal out of the 1200XL or is more to do? Matthias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Here's a copy of part of the 800XL schematic. The entire section marked Note 6 must be installed (for 4.43MHz PAL), and the crystal at Note 5 must be changed. In my 1200XL schematic, I don't see a place to add a PAL clock, so I don't know if it can be done. -Bry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
